Polythene bags must be banned!

Polythene bags must be banned as they are non-biodegradable and when burnt harmful gases such as greenhouse gases are produced which are responsible for global warming (which causes the increase in temperature of earth by forming a blanket of gases which trap sunlight) and also marine life is very much affected by the plastic fragments like polythene floating in water bodies and sometimes fishes and birds mistook as food and that got struck in throat or effects the digestive system and almost 8 million tons of plastic gets floated in water bodies every year and when plastic bags are drained into gutters they gets into pieces and from there they get into oceans and their the marine ecosystem gets affected and researchers have found plastic fragments in large amount of water animals like fishes which are consumed by humans thus the whole ecosystem getting affected.

Hi, I am Rajender.

In my view, polyethene is non-decomposable, and over 100 years take to mix in soil.

In city's animals taking plastic as their food, this leads to animal death.

But here at the same time, we can observe that plastic bags are cheep and carrying capacity is high.

And we are using plastics in all fields. Now it is may not possible to banned completely but by taking precautions we can reduce the usage of plastics.

For example, reusing single bag for many times. And recycle the old bags.

According to me,

Polythene may not be banned.

Because it is used for many work and used in industrial area it gives to employment that's why polythene should not be banned.

But we are reduced the consuming captivity just like reuse and recycling.

I think polythene bag are banned we know that it may harmfull to the environment it can not mix with soil so faster. Continue use of polythene will put in big trouble in future, instead of polythene we have alternative then why to use polythene.

Hello everyone,

In my point of view, first of all people should avoid using polythene. Because polythene is not good for our environment. I do not say that polythene should be completely banned. Nowadays we use so much polythene so we can not completely be banned but slowly we could use less polythene can not mix with soils. And it creates CH4 that is not good for environment. Polythene can be recycled.

In my opinion, polythene should be banned. Now-a-days the plastics play an major role were in cities most of them using the plastics as the bag for shopping or carrying some objects. Some of the people buying the hot food products in the plastics so that may cause cancer to the person who is eating the food, and basically the animals on the cities were taking the plastics as the food so that are stuck in the throat, etc So the polythene cannot be banned completely It should be reduced step by step. So mostly avoid the polythene and make the environment Neat and clean.

In my opinion, I don't think polythene bags should be banned. According to me it's not the polythene bags which are harmful to the environment but the lack of awareness among the people for disposing it properly and the poor management in the society which lead to harming the environment. If we generate awareness among the people for proper disposal of plastics into dustbins and then if these plastics are properly recycled then what's wrong with this. And we know how handy and easier it is to carry plastic bags and also economic and better alternative for lower class people.

Yes, polythene bags must be banned as they take 10,000 years to degrade and it is a long period of time for degradation while a banana peel takes just 2 days to degrade, leaves from plants, vegetable and fruit waste take less time to degrade as compare to polythene bag. Even if we are burying polythene bags in the soil for its degradation it will pollute soil and will lower the fertility of soil, and if we will burn the polythene bag it will create harmful and dangerous fumes which is injurious to human begins and animals as they pollute the air of surrounding. If by chance cow or any other animal intact that poly bag they may even die as this poly bag may choke their throat while they are trying to intact it. So polythene bags are only creating a problem in the environment and it is really very harmful so they need to be banned. Instead of polythene bags, we can use paper bags or cloth bags which are ecofriendly.

Good morning all, This is SWATHI.

According to my opinion, Yes, we have to ban polythene.The use of polythene plays a very important key role in our life like shopping and such like things.The global environment is getting polluted very harmful gases such as greenhouse gases are produced. The ozone layer is getting polluted. The water is getting contaminated and polluted. Much amount of plastic floats on water.The marine animals are dying we the humans eat sea foods and causes many diseases. So, we have to stop using polythene and use cotton bags.

Thank you.

Hi, dear friends.

Use of polythene is not good for our environment, for our soil, and wastage polythene which animals eat is chocked their respiratory system. We all are much aware that burning of poly bags get environment polluted its results global warming.

After having such kind of awareness we people must avoid the use of plastic and poly bags which completely biodegradation is also taken many years.

It's my views friends.
